Abstract:
Ovarian lymphomas are rare. We reviewed three cases seen at our hospital to determine any similarities and outcome. The women presented with abdominal discomfort and swelling and were staged as stage I, II and IV. All three cases were B-cell lymphomas confirmed with positive staining with CD45 (LCA), CD20 (L26), CD 45 (4KB) CD45RA (MB1) and MB2 on immunohistochemistry. The two patients with more advanced disease died soon after treatment but the one with stage I (primary ovarian lymphoma) was still alive after 2 years. Ovarian lymphoma when detected late carries a poor prognosis.

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
